Der Track hat etwas mit meiner letzten Reise zu tun. Er heißt Libertad, also Freiheit. Ich war in Spanien, Marokko und Thailand unterwegs. Dort waren einige Tiere in Gefangenschaft zu sehen. Wirklich teilweise schreckliche Zustände. Freiheit sollte für alle Leben gelten.

A rare solo set from composer, percussionist and sound artist Susie Ibarra. 

"Rhythm Cycles is a drum solo that I consider as a performance meditation. I love to perform this piece as it is possible to always arrive at new places while returning to familiar cycles that make so much sense to me. This piece is constructed to weave through certain tempos and hit points during a solo performance that arrive at melodies and textures and phrases grounded in specific rhythms and polyrhythms. The piece cycles through each of these sections and allows me to improvise through a flexible structure, sometimes returning to a section at moments and other times moving forward to create a new rhythmic environment.

Recorded live at Cafe OTO on Thursday 7th November 2019 by Shaun Crook. Mixed and mastered by James Dunn.

Susie Ibarra is a Yamaha, Zildjian and Vic Firth Drum Artist.
